Florida-based consultancy Levantage AI Advisors is attempting to help small and medium-sized law firms that want to deploy AI but don’t have the time or in-house resources to pick the right technology.
Most attorneys lack the bandwidth to experiment with dozens of tools or risk getting it wrong, according to Ty Brown, a personal injury attorney, entrepreneur and brand ambassador at Levantage.
The consultancy, which does not sell its own software, is targeting law firms with between one and 100 employees.
Levantage will advise law firms on AI strategy, AI installation and task automation, including getting updates from clients, filing documents, organising files and drafting contracts.
“Lawyers spend a lot of time [on] admin,” says Brown. “A lot of admin can be automated with AI. AI is a phenomenal admin assistant, as long as your workflows are nailed down.”
His consultancy wants to “bridge the gap” between legal technology and managers of small and mid-sized law firms, he adds.
Despite a three-year boom in the legal AI market, there is relatively little evidence about whether the technology is providing value for money for law firms.
Only one in five (20%) of legal professionals in countries including the US, Canada, UK and Australia, are measuring return on investment from generative AI, according to research last year from Thomson Reuters.
